Just read a story about him. Somedays, he's in so much pain he can't even get out of bed.
I remember looking forward to seeing him try his jumps on TV when I was a kid. We all used to ride our bikes and try jumps and say we were just like him! | | | |

Maybe there was a wall with a TV right behind the photographer and he had to get in close to get the picture? | | | |
